SMRA Rust Bust - 2026 - U12-U19
Indus Ringette Association & Strathmore Minor Ringette Association are excited to announce our collaborative RUST BUST sessions for U12-19 athletes, as we prepare for the upcoming 2026/2027 season together!
During the Rust Bust sessions athletes will practice skating skills, review game play skills, and review the concepts of the Universal Athlete Assessment (UAA). Rust Bust sessions are not mandatory to attend, and athletes are not being evaluated at these sessions. The intention is to support athletes with the opportunity to prepare for the upcoming evaluations and ringette season, in a fun sport environment.
Athletes may only register for one (1) session. A maximum of 20 registrations are available per session.
Hybrid goaltenders may choose to attend BOTH the player and goaltender sessions, in the respective positions.
Sessions are free to attend. Rust Bust Sessions will be hosted at Strathmore Family Centre Arena. Please confirm athlete registration, so instructors may plan accordingly. Please register your athlete using the respective session in attached registration form: 2026 SMRA & IRA Collaborative Rust Bust Athlete Registration
